I would love to see Patty Roy coach. I bet he would have some great post game interviews.

Hats off to Sacco for surviving 4 years. I'm still scratching my head about that.

I guess they're going to let Sherman get another coach, can't be worse than Sacco...right?

I think Sherman should get the axe as well...

/That said, I'm sure glad he matched Feaster's offer sheet for Ryan O'Reilly.

I can't believe Sherman still has a job. He is without a doubt the worst GM in the entire league. Nobody else is even remotely close. He could have screwed over Feaster & the Flames so bad it's not even funny. This guy is making Milbury look good.

Doesn't Stan Kroenke still own the Avs? He also owns the St Louis Rams, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Rapids MLS team and Arsenal as well. He probably has too many teams on his plate to care about the lowly Avs.

I'm not sure. Is he one of the Wal Mart heirs? If so you're probably right. Sherman is running this team into the ground. They have some talented young players, but Sherman has made some very poor moves. Acquiring Varlamov being one of them.

Dean Chynoweth is a strong candidate to be the next Avalanche coach. He's working for the farm team (ahl) of the Avalanche as the head coach

I bet Feaster is as well. I still want to know what Sacco had on Kroenke and son that kept him from getting fired.
